Anna Nicole’s Dad Dies of Lung Cancer
Donald Hogan 62, father of Anna Nicole Smith, has died after a battle with lung cancer. He was buried on September 22, 2009. He was a Vietnam vet and a retired carpenter.
He had refused treatment and spent 3 weeks in a hospice before he passed away. His cancer was diagnosed too late, as he was in the last stages by then.
It was no secret that Donald Hogan thought Howard K. Stern was responsible for his daughters death.
In an e-online article he states: “I was asked awhile back, ‘Do you hate Howard Stern?’ ” Hogan says. “I don’t hate him—but I dislike him more than anyone I have ever disliked, and I have my own personal views and opinions on things about him that I’m not going to say.
“But I blame him totally for her death…Nobody put a gun to her head, but somebody sure brought a lot of drugs home and, instead of bringing drugs to someone, even if she had a fit about it, I’d tell her to tell someone else to get it for you.”
Would You Say “No” To a Billionaire?

Anna met J. Howard Marshall II, a Texas billionaire who made his money in the oil business, while working in a strip club in Houston. He became one of her “regulars” lavishing her with gifts on a regular basis. They became friends and oddly enough lovers. Their 63 year difference in age didn’t seem to make much difference. During the four years that they knew each other Marshall asked her numerous times to marry him. It was only after she had made a name for herself at age 26 that she finally agreed.
Anna says she saved Marshall’s life one day when he stopped breathing. She quickly went to his rescue and resuscitated him after calling everyone she knew for help. It scared her immensely but she kept it together enough to help him out. If she had really been just after his money wouldn’t she have just let him go?
She say’s they had sex before their marriage and during as well as performing her “wifely duties”. There had always been speculation on that fact and Anna answered it publicly in interviews. That was viewed as a very odd relationship for most people and the fact that she loved him enough to “perform” for him made it seem more bizarre. I guess it is hard to image that sort of thing when the person you are envisioning it with is old enough to be your grandfather or even great-grandfather huh?
According to Anna’s half-sister Donna Hogan she felt that Marshall was Anna’s security blanket, basically. Her opinion of their marriage was that he made her sister feel secure, safe and well-taken care of. That is a very common reason for a woman to get married, there is nothing out of the ordinary here. I would venture to say that is probably the most common reason of all!
